Pagination and style in JavaFX TableView

4 March,2013Narayan G. Maharjan

Hello geeks, I think most of you have already knew that JavaFX 2.2 contains the “Pagination” which is really awesome although it is not pretty hard to make our own. Lets first look over how the Pagination actually looks like.

1. LOOKS

Normal Pagination

Ok now that was just the normal Pagination you can modify and change as per your need . You can just style it using some CSS codes.

As Pagination is inherited from Control class; we can easily place this control at any container like Group,Pane etc.

3.STYLE (Make it different)

Although the default style of this control is actually good but the default is not suitable when it comes for the vendor specific design and for different purposes. Lets looks at some CSS styling which I have done differently.

Hi! I know this is kinda off topic but I’d figured I’d ask.
Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring a blog article or
vice-versa? My website discusses a lot of the same topics as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each
other. If you might be interested feel free to send me an e-mail.
I look forward to hearing from you! Terrific blog by
the way!

Hi there,
I’m here to actually talk about a problem that has been asked almost everywhere but not a once discussed or even code shown !!
Even at Oracle site, all they do are nothing but mere static codes
The problem in iteself is, i have a tableview which is filled from a database !!
When i click on a row in the tableview, i want to get the first colomn’s value of the selected row !!
In java, when yu include the rs2xml.jar library, yu have a method that is getValueAt(row,coloumn) but as far as i have searched, i didn’t get to find a way to do this !!
I really need help for this, it concerns my final year’s project !!

@Chris,
For making the sorting done you need to make your own way. Because javafx only provides the sorting of table with in the content of tableview.
How to make this happen:
1. Take the table header control Node from CSS selector via Node class
node.lookupAll(“.column-header”);
2. Then use click event listener to that node
3. apply your logic and then sort the whole pagination 🙂

Oh my goodness! Awesome article dude! Thank you so much,
However I am going through difficulties with your RSS. I don’t understand the reason why I can’t
subscribe to it. Is there anybody getting the same RSS problems?
Anyone that knows the answer will you kindly respond?
Thanx!!

Hi ..i saw most of the sample code gave only fixed size of no.of rows per page , but my requirement is need to choose different no of rows per page by clicking
hyperlink for pagination, and this pagination needs to work by both filtered items and table items ..
